Thanks for so many people checking out things yesterday on the blog. I am indebted to you. To all my students in the past two years, to my family, my friends and most of all to my Mom Judy, who really taught be "how" to cook.
Aside from Angel food cake and a soufflé I am not sure there is anything I have not actually cooked to date. And those two items will be tackled shortly. Knowing what batters, mixed items and techniques were supposed to yield has made this path of discovery possible. I want to thank my Mother-in Law Sarah who I tended stoves with for many years cooking in South America. I am grateful to her love of entertaining. Both women are dear to my heart.
To my sister who gave me the first gluten-free recipes one Christmas 3.5 years ago when I was at my wits end - bringing fresh rising bread and homemade shortbreads in the door on the 25th of December - a fine chef and culinary expert in her own right. Lesley you gave me the courage to continue that day. I wear the chefs jacket you gave me with pride at my classes.
To all those who have come before me and how are co-creating a better gluten free world. May the methods and techniques I have found serve you well. And may no one ever know again that what you are making in your home is not made with wheat. I thank Dr. Jennifer Armstrong who was the catalyst for me going gluten free. I am no longer ill and I now no longer suffer not being able to eat anything!
Here's to the journey. Thank you for joining me. May this work provide you with encouragement, wisdom and a wealth of knowledge. That you may never think you ever have to cheat again. What ever you want is available to you and so much more.
